Pookie

Pookie is an example of a woman who has not only been tried in the fire of life, but has shown proof that the fire wont keep her down. She is a woman of God whose past will make many cry, but her victories will instill so much hope for a better future. I have been so humbled after being asked to edit her book, going through each chapter of her life, and cant help but to believe that the way she is has to do with the Holy Spirit. He has given her beauty, knowledge, intelligence, and a sense of humor that will have your stomach hurting from so much laughter. Pookie is the Author of this book, her testimony. Im so thankful to have another sister in my life, and that I had the time to walk with her on this assignment.

Dedication

This book is dedicated to all of you who think that you have to struggle with things even after you’re saved but you don’t. You will go through stuff, but God is always there for you. This story is the book of my life, my very first book, so excuse me if I chase rabbits. I want to thank the Publisher and the Editor who have put all these pieces of my book together and made it an awesome book. I pray that no weapon formed against myself or my colleagues shall prosper right now, or that anything will stop this book from being published this year in Jesus Name. I also want to dedicate this book to Pastors who came from New York and gave me an awesome Word. In my book, I will mention names, because I want to be comfortable when telling my story of what I know from the beginning to the end.

Acknowledgements

I would like to thank and acknowledge the best editor in the whole wide world, my Sister in Christ, who is beautiful and intelligent, and a mighty woman of God who took time out of her life to help me put mine on paper; Free Indeed Church, Apostle and Prophetess, who were there for me during my time of spiritual drought, and who implanted seeds of God’s Word into my life; And to all of the Saints in my life for teaching me a deeper foundation of gifts and callings, and immersing me in her everlasting love. To my God-parents and my sister who took me in when no one else would, and taught me how to be a woman; my family members and friends who put up with my spiritual purging I was going through, and those who still love me no matter what; and to my best friend Tinkem, a love note thanking you for loving me while I was locked up in my dark places. You were the best listner that I had, and you implanted the Word of God in me while on the inside of that place of shame, and showed me how to truly follow Jesus by applying and acting on His Word. And even when you were released before I was, you continued to love me not only as a sister in Christ, but as a true sister and loving friend who always loved and understood me when no one else could.

Introduction

JESUS IS LORD. Jesus IS the Living Word.

Everything that comes from Him cannot be voided out because Jesus is the very Breath of God. He’s the Logos. He’s God’s Son. He IS God; Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Throughout this book, I will be addressing the Father as, Abba, My Father, Jesus. Sometimes, I will emphasize Best Friend, The Holy Spirit, My Counselor, and Helper. To me, God forms Holy Spirit as a her". For me He forms that part of Himself as a woman… you’ll see why.
